: That's correct about only linking to either individual verses or whole chapters. Feel free to link how you want. You could consider linking like this [[Luke 2]]:26-38 but you do what you think works best. --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 10:01, 19 September 2008 (PDT)
 
== Cleaner inserting redlinks ==
 
Could you please tell Cleaner not to insert redlinks at the end of EBD pages. I've just removed some from pages (see recent changes). [[User:Kathleen.wright5|Kathleen.wright5]] 23:55, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
 
: You don't like red-links? Fair enough - we'll make no more red-links in the EBD pages. Remember though that the Easton Bible Dictionary pages aren't meant to be the information article for a topic. For example, [[Jesus]] is the main article on Jesus, and it links to the Easton's Bible Dictionary page on Jesus ([[Jesus (EBD)]]) in its info-box on the right hand side. Ultimately WikiChristian aims to have independent information articles for every topic and these will link to their appropriate Easton's Bible Dictionary page or Matthew Henry Commentary page etc. --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 04:13, 3 October 2008 (PDT)
 
:: By the way I think you are doing a great job with your cleaning up of the EBD pages and linking to other EBD pages. So thank you heaps for your hard work. I have noticed that you are linking to wikipedia sometimes through the EBD pages. What do you reckon about holding off on links to Wikipedia from within the EBD arciles themselves? (Ideally I think that all links within WikiChristian should be internal, unless they are under the ==Links== section of an information article - see [[WikiChristian:Page Layout]]). What are your thoughts? --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 04:18, 3 October 2008 (PDT)
 
::: I thought I was adding value with links to Wikipedia (e.g [[wikipedia:Knights Hospitallers|Knights Hospitallers]] and [[wikipedia:Crusades|Crusades]]), but if you think its inappropriate I'll stop. I'm also doing the same thing at [[Wikipedia:Wikisource|Wikisource]] through Wikisource:WikiProject Bible dictionaries, where there are only 2 active members me and [[User:Carlaude|Carlaude]] [[User:Kathleen.wright5|Kathleen.wright5]] 08:44, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
 
:::: I think you've been doing an outstanding job with the cleaning up and linking you've been doing and that you should be proud of what you've done. I guess I'm just trying to think about WikiChristian's future. In my mind it is better that we link internally in WikiChristian to the [[Knights Hospitallers]] and [[Crusades]] rather than to Wikipedia's version - even if these articles don't exist currently in WikiChristian, hopefully they will in the future. If you are very keen on continuing to inter-link into wikipedia and wikisource then feel free to continue doing so, but if you are happy to hold-off on any inter-linking then I think that would be even better. But you decide what you think is best, given that you are the main person working on the EBD pages. Oh, by the way, the EBD pages are likely to be moved in the near future - see my discussion with Robert above about a new name-space '''Text'''. Thanks once again Kathleen. --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 12:48, 3 October 2008 (PDT)
 
== Created namespace ==
 
The <code>TEXT</code> namespace has been created. --[[User:Aquatiki|Aquatiki]] 13:13, 3 October 2008 (PDT)
 
: Brilliant. Thanks Robert. --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 13:17, 3 October 2008 (PDT)
 
== Lost it ==
 
I commented in EBD. Where was our mock-up of a chapter page? I'm trying to program it now, but I can't remember where we'd made a model ... --[[User:Aquatiki|Aquatiki]] 13:24, 4 October 2008 (PDT)
 
: Sorry it's taking me so long to respond. For some reason WikiChristian seems to have slowed down to an absolute snail-pace over here. Everything else on the internet is working fine. Is the problem happening to you too? If not then I wonder why it is happening to me. I can't remember where the chapter page is, but I'll look for it and let you know as soon as I find it. Thanks. --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 13:28, 4 October 2008 (PDT)
 
::Found it [[Bible:John 1:1/sandbox]]!!
 
== Try [[Genesis 1]] ==
 
and let me know, quick! --[[User:Aquatiki|Aquatiki]] 15:45, 4 October 2008 (PDT)
 
: Excellent. That looks great! Nothing needs changing. --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 15:48, 4 October 2008 (PDT)
 
== Quick question ==
 
Graham,
 
I am helping a Aussie based Christian ministry expand their internet effectiveness. I am also doing the same for a couple of notable American ministries. I was wondering if I could speak to you in private regarding a matter. Do you have Skype, Yahoo IM, or AIM and if so could we please have a quick and cordial chat. [[User:Theologian|Theologian]] 23:49, 7 October 2008 (PDT)
 
: Hi. Probably the easiest way to get in contact with me is simply through my email address. Sorry that it isn't quite as quick as skyping or something similar. My email is grahamlgrove at gmail dot com. --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 10:21, 8 October 2008 (PDT)
 
== Backup Namespace ==
 
Is it OK to remove Backup:Name of page pages? [[User:Kathleen.wright5|Kathleen.wright5]] 11:10, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
 
: Only if you transfer the relevant commentary content of them into the appropriate bible chapter page first. So yep, go for that if you want. Thanks. --[[User:Graham grove|Graham grove]] 12:10, 10 October 2008 (PDT)
